Two NBA sources, both close to the Warriors veteran forward, told me that Al Harrington recently informed the Warriors that he does not want to play for Don Nelson any more and is requesting to be traded as soon as possible.

(There is no suggestion, however, that Harrington will walk out from the team if he isn’t traded before the start of the season tomorrow.)

In fact, one league source with knowledge of the situation said that Harrington’s agent, Dan Fegan, is “actively working to get (Harrington) out of there” and that a few teams already have proposed tentative deals.

This guy is never satisfied. For someone of his caliber - an average player who never has impressed statistically and certainly never in important situations - Al really feels under-appreciated everywhere he goes. Nice guy, but I don't understand where his head is at.

Re: Harrington demands trade from Warriors; doesn't want to play for Nellie any longer

I think they would think about it. I think they'd wait to see how Marcus Williams does coming out of the gate first. Maybe Mully helps his ol' buddy out! They're saying DeMarcus Nelson is getting the starting nod at PG. That's interesting.

If it means getting rid of Tinman I would be all for it. Al might be an average player, but he is good in the community and would not be getting arrested. You never know, he might do well in the JOB system.

According to RealGM's Trade Checker, Tinsley & Baston for Harrngton would
work.

And Harrington's contract has just 1 year left on it.

I'd pull the trigger on that deal in a heartbeat if they would go for it.

As I was reading this, I thought to myself, no freaking way... who wants an entitled crybaby disrupting our newly evolving "chemistry"... but when you put it that way (especially the fact that Harrington has a year left on his contract), then you have to pull the trigger on this. Even if he rode the bench...

Man, talk about cleaning the house... that'd be incredible if all of this happened in one offseason.
